FORUM RULES ABOUT WEB-BASED LINKS TO MUSIC AND VIDEO'S

Based on latest discussions on this forum, and studiing copyright laws, it is necessary to state out new forum mandatory rules, effective immediately, so, here we are.

LINKS TO MUSIC & VIDEOS: what is legal/what is not.
NEW RULES in the forum state:

From now on in our forum users shal NOT POST TOPICS THAT containin the following :
• Requests for or links to MP3s, music videos, or other files of questionable legality
• Bootlegs

So, please do not POST A LINK TO music or videos which does not directly originate from an officially legal site.

An OFFICIALLY LEGAL SITE is: rammstein.com or rammstein.de, universal music, a legitimate music site like MTV or VIVA. The links must be direct and linked only to the approved site. Any links which have copied and transferred the music or videos from an official legal site to ANYWHERE else are NOT OFFICIAL.

• Do not ASK FOR A LINK to music or videos. If there is a legal site for either listening or viewing, xTERNAL will provide the information in the NEWS section of www.RAMMSTEIN-EUROPE.com.

WHAT YOU CAN DO in the forums: You can DISCUSS a new song or a new video.

WHAT YOU CANNOT DO in the forums: provide illegal links or ask for links, give directions of any kind as to where something might be found (examples: file-sharing, other fansites, etc.). Screen caps will be allowed (within reason) AFTER a video has been made available through an OFFICIAL LEGAL LINK. Fan remixes of songs will be allowed (within reason) after the song has been officially released.

The above restrictions are necessary not because we are being “damn babies” or “. The reason is simply that RAMMSTEIN-EUROPE has made the decision to not be a facilitator of illegal activities involving copyrighted material. The reason for that is also clear. Rammstein’s Management has shown aggressive behaviour in combating copyright infringement.

Anyone who violates the spirit of the aforementioned expansion/explanation of what the RULES mean here as applied to music and videos (and this also includes the "making of videos") will meet up with one of the following consequences:

POST BLOCKED, LINK ERASED AND WORSE.... BANNED IF NECESSARY.

If you have ANY questions about what may or may not be acceptable here, you can always PM a Moderator and ask first before posting something that might get you in trouble here.

•any links to www.youtube.com (or other sharing sites of a similar nature)are generally not allowed.
While some videos like fan made items or spoof animations are allowed, we do not allow linking to youtube. Oftentimes there is/are illegal videos of Rammstein performances to the side of the linked videos. Actual Rammstein Videos which are very illegal to be hosted by that site - therefore we cannot allow links to youtube to be allowed.

So, links to youtube are now allowed - ONLY IF it is a fanmade video by you, and does not contain bootleg footage or footage of live performances or released performances. Stills from photos found on the net are OK. A montage is OK. Clips of released footage are NOT OK.

Please try to understand that sometimes while we may allow a certain individuals fanmade videos, and deny another persons it is usually because the content in it could get the forums in trouble.

Also if some individuals post their fanmade video and it turns out to be bootleg footage that they filmed themselves at a concert and consider that "fanmade" - then we will have to reverse the ruling on allowing fanmade videos PERIOD!

Here is an update on what is considered "fanmade".
Fanmade is fanmade. You did it yourself. Like cut and paste. You creatd everything yourself. No footage filmed by someone else no clips. Still images are OK.
For example:
If you go out and find 6 banana slugs in the yard, dress them up in LAB outfits, and put the skinniest one in a paper boat and play the music to SEEMANN on a kazoo. That is fanmade.

If you have a coverband and you do your own video or you have footage of YOUR band's performance. That is fanmade.

If you have images that you sketched of how you think the video for a song should have been and you put it to music - I think we can allow that.

Use your creativity.

IF YOU SEE VIOLATION OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, REPORT IT BY USING THE EXCLAMATION MARK IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER OF RELEVANT POST.

Oh i forgot to say i will hopefully have some pictures to share with you all soon, when i have recovered from my hangover i will get them on my lap top so i can post a few for you, my camera is not that great so they will not be the worlds best but at least i have a couple of good ones from Feuer Frei and Engel. I will always have them to remind me of one of the best days of my life. Will take so long for me to come down. Incidently i must tell you that on the way home last night on the train i saw the most incredible Richard lookalike, he had obviously tried so hard and succeeded to look like him, i could not stop staring and he caught me looking at him a couple of times and smiled, you can imagine my embarrasment.

Well here it is my review of the concert at London 02...
Just as well i am writing it as i woke up this morning with no voice from all my singing and shouting.

We arrived at the stadium around 3.30pm, had a few drinks in one of the bars, i had an added bonus of meeting up with a friend who had moved to London from Worthing, he was not going to the gig but he was at work when i got the tickets so he wanted to be there to see my excitement on the day.
Around 5.30 we were approached by an official who asked us if we were sky tv customers, apparantly they had a VIP backstage bar where we could go for a drink and possibly meet the band, of course we did not hesitate and took the chance, unfortunatly it did not happen and we also missed the procession and the chance to meet Paul.
We were shown to our seats at 6.30 and the excitement mounted, Deathstars came on at 7.30, we gave them a very big welcome and they played a pretty good set, of course we were all waiting for Rammstein and they knew that. Anyway the atmosphere was electric and when the lights went down after the interval there was a massive cheer and when they first appeared to the front of me the whole stadium exploded with energy, OMG the moment had arrived at last and my six german gods were there right in front of me. They walked slowly along the platform Till carying a torch of flame at the front and Schneider at the back with the England flag. My only regret here was that we were to the left of the stage and they came from the right. Of course as you all know the opening song was Sonne, the sound was amazing and the heat intense, i got my binoculars and had the first close up glimpse of my god, he lookes amazing, long coat which i love, black spiky hair which i love.
Anyway will not go into detail of each song but all were performed to there high standard. During Haifisch Flake went out in the boat, he almost got tipped out at one point and we all cheered, the heat from the flames during Feur Frei reached us and even the smell of the smoke was exciting and added to the atmosphere. Of course i cried with emotion in Ohne Dich and cried with laughter during Buck Dich. Engel was awesome, the flaming wings have to be seen to be believed. The only down point for me was Amerika, i really cant stand that song but i sang along with the crowd anyway.
To sum it all up i can honestly say that this show outshone my previous Rammstein concert and they are by far the best band i have ever seen in my life and of course i would not be RBF if i did not end by saying I love him more now than i have ever done if that is possible and i will never give up my dream of one day meeting him.
Thanks for listening and speak again soon

That is a great review, thank you. I don't like Amerika either - or Pussy.. I love all of the others though. Can I ask what time they came on stage and how long they were on for? My boyfriend and me are off to Nottingham gig on Friday and cannot wait - will be down the front somewhere if I can handle the heat!

"Which is better, eternal happiness or a ham sandwich? It would appear that eternal happiness is better, but this is really not so! After all, nothing is better than eternal happiness, and a ham sandwich is certainly better than nothing. Therefore a ham sandwich is better than eternal happiness."

Deathstars came on at 7.30 till 8pm and Rammstein played 8.30 till 10.45 not long enough the time went so quickly it seemed like 5 mins. Hope you have a great time in Nottingham

It was brilliant! We stood very near the second stage and luckily they roped a section through the crowd so when they walked through I could have literally touched them! Had a great view when they played the second stage - Paul gave lots of smiles. Sound was awsome just a shame the dick I was stood behind felt it was more important to chat to his mate continuously throughout the concert
